Below is a movie of a huge sandstorm that hit Dunhuang, which was shot by a colleague of Twitter user @DNeilSchmid.



You can see that mokumoku and sand smoke are rising through the roof of the building.



If you change the camera angle, you can see that it is a huge sandstorm, not sand smoke. Compared to 7-story and 10-story condominiums, you can see how huge the sandstorm is.



The movie released by @DNeilSchmid is playing at a constant speed, but you can clearly see that the sandstorm is gradually approaching the urban area.



Below is a movie of Sandstorm released by USA TODAY on Twitter.



It is a movie that seems to have been taken with a security camera installed in an urban area ...



Since it is played at double speed, you can see the state of the urban area swallowed by the sandstorm.



Even if you watch it in a movie, you will feel scared.




A sandstorm completely covers your view.




According to local media reports in Dunhuang, a sandstorm suddenly appeared and swallowed the city in about 5 to 6 minutes. 'I couldn't see the sun,' Zhang, a local resident, told the local media. Mr. Zhang said that he has no memory of experiencing such a large-scale sandstorm in Dunhuang over the past few years.

According to the Chugoku Shimbun , a national news agency in China, sandstorms occur every spring in the region, but they are extremely rare in the summer.
